Hobbies

Let me introduce myself with a quick story... believe it or not, when I was in High School I considered Chemistry to be my worst subject. I couldn't stand going to class! Though I quite liked Biology and even won 'The Physics Student of the Year' award, chemical formulas and equations seemed like a foreign language to me (well, worse than a foreign language since I scored much higher in Spanish). What the heck happened!? Basically, as a lifelong outdoorsman I got really interested in Environmental Sciences. Through University Courses like Environmental Geochemistry and Limnology, I began to realize that chemistry is actually used in the real world - imagine that! Anyway, the fact that chemistry actually mattered to stuff that I was interested in made all the difference in the world. As a result, I always strive to make lessons and concepts in chemistry applicable to real-world. Furthermore, I understand that most students will go into a field that literally never requires a working knowledge of chemistry, so I empathize with you for learning it nonetheless. However, as with all subjects, the lessons and concepts from chemistry are meant to be applied to concepts other than the one in which they were taught. For that reason, I always challenge students to apply concepts beyond what they may need to know for a class. Yes, it may be a little bit more challenging in the moment, but the idea is that learning how to apply knowledge to different concepts is akin to teaching a man to fish as opposed to giving him a fish for one night.
